Parrots, pirates and fancy dress ~

I f you can see yourself as a porcupine,

a Pink Lady

or even a panda,

whether you go to cold party

a gold party

or just want to dance, 

dressing up will raise the spirits and must be good for the health.

If you can imagine yourself as Captain Flint, the town of Hastings in East Sussex is hosting a massive fancy dress party this Sunday 21st July ~ Hastings Pirate Day ~ They promise a parrot-flying display and a pirate ship donated by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers NFL American football team. Beware, there may be more than 15,000 pirates in town - they are current world record holders' for this sort of thing.
